00:00:00.000 | On the hotel side is where I think Citi really shines.
00:00:02.520 | And that's honestly the reason
00:00:03.820 | that I wanted to get into Citi's program
00:00:05.740 | was hotels and the Eva Air availability.
00:00:08.320 | Notably, Citi gets choice hotels,
00:00:11.880 | which is also part of Amex, also part of Cap One,
00:00:14.660 | but you get a one to two ratio
00:00:16.800 | instead of on those programs, you get a one to one.
00:00:18.680 | So twice as many choice points.
00:00:20.480 | Wells Fargo Rewards similarly has a one to two choice points.
00:00:23.700 | I'll brush on Wells Fargo in a little bit,
00:00:25.480 | but the access to some preferred hotels,
00:00:28.260 | which are some nice luxury hotels,
00:00:29.740 | is interesting.
00:00:30.080 | There are also a ton of choice hotels.
00:00:31.540 | They don't have the most luxurious portfolio.
00:00:34.600 | There are some really nice Radisson Blues,
00:00:36.680 | Cambria, Ascends, but for the most part,
00:00:39.260 | I would say compared to other hotel chains,
00:00:40.960 | the shining star of choice is not hotels
00:00:43.560 | if you're looking to stay in really luxury properties.
00:00:45.540 | But if you are, Citi also has preferred hotels
00:00:48.620 | and leading hotels of the world.
